So, I decided last week that I am at the point after my divorce where I'd like to try meeting other women. I still don't think I'm over my XW. If she showed any indication of reconsidering at this point, I'd take me about two seconds to decide what to do. However, I think it's, in a way, just more pursuing if six months after the divorce, I'm still waiting for that change of heart to kick in. It's certainly had an impact on my sense of confidence and happiness to wait the past year for her to reconsider, or even talk to me about it. I think I'm finally ready to move on.
The next difficult step, of course, is how I approach dating. I worry that I'm in a healthy state of mind to begin any sort of relationship. Maybe something casual would be okay. I signed up for an online site, and have a drink with an interesting lady later this week. That happened quickly.
Anyway, these forums have been really great for support and ideas. I appreciate all the advice and sharing people have provided here.
